The reputation is about fact-checking, i.e. dates and numbers.

Fact-checking isn't just about dates and numbers, but about all facts presented in an article.

As a German I'm also surprised about that reputation. The Spiegel is somewhere between a serious newspaper (like FAZ, Süddeutsche or Zeit) and a tabloid (like Bild). Hunting for great headlines and stories, but not necessarily concerned with objective news reporting.
